GAZETTE camera club members have been busy submitting their Halloween-themed snaps this week.
With pumpkin patches welcoming visitors across north Essex ahead of Halloween on Tuesday, it has been the perfect time to get out and about to take some eerie shots.
Kevin Jay's photos of his tour of the seaside with a well-carved pumpkin really impressed us, and it looks like Maureen Jackson had a great trip to Beth Chatto Gardens.
If you're a keen photographer and would like a chance for your photos to be published, search for Gazette Camera Club Colchester on Facebook.
